Les & Ronnie Step Out

Praise

“A Type-A personality learns to walk in someone else’s shoes (literally!) after an accident. . . . Les is the left leg to Ronnie’s right, and though they are both of a warm, light-brown hue, the two could not be more different. . . . Needless to say, life together is difficult for this pair of opposites. . . . Kolb’s pencil-and-digital illustrations play up the dichotomy between the two legs, their faces’ eyebrows and mouths making them as emotive as any emoji. The sequence in which Les lets loose is especially enjoyable and illustrates just how awkward and uncomfortable it can be at first, though by the end Les and Ronnie are both all smiles. This odd couple doesn’t need any lessons on friendship, though perhaps they could use some pointers on safe skateboarding.”—Kirkus Reviews
